Re: Sweet or Salty?

I have a huge problem with both and I prefer them together. Like chocolate covered pretzels! I put extra salt on everrryyythinggg i eat. My sister does too. Someone told us that women tend to taste salt less then men? I don't know if thats true? I know it has to do with hormone levels. You taste it less when you are a teenager and then as you get older and have gone through menopause you are more sensitive to it... but I'm not a doctor so I could just be talking out of my ass right now.

My mom (who is in her 70s), cannot abide salt, so in her case, your assessment rings true.
